Before the muscle and performance of the 60s, things were slow and calm in the world of American motors, land yachts with luxury and class graced the scene, and while they were a sight to behold, they never really had any performance to shock and awe. The 50s legend we have today looks like this 1958 Ford Fairlane Coupe; it's not another luxury land yacht and sports a surprise underneath its hood, making it a comfortable cruiser that stings.
If you ever wanted a car whose design perfectly captures what was great with 50s Americana design, look no further as this 1958 Ford Fairlane Coupe with its white exterior is a true icon of a time ago. The exterior is clean and sports all its exterior components, like its chrome trim and those iconic 50s fins at the rear. Moving away from the land yacht design and things are taken up a notch with the Weld racing wheels that are reportedly wrapped with fresh tires. Once you are behind this 1958 Ford Fairlane Coupe wheel and amongst the two-tone black and white interior, you know you are in an American motor from the 50s. The current owner reports that the interior has been reupholstered and also features a painted dashboard that is home to a JVC sound system. Among the freshening up, one would also note the presence of gauges; this all starts to make sense the moment you decide to get on the gas and see the performance this car has in store.
No matter which angle you choose to admire this 1958 Ford Fairlane Coupe from, one thing is for certain, it's an American car from the 50s, and it has the size and opulence to prove it. One might wonder what lies underneath to power a car this extravagant, pop the hood of this American classic, and what you will find is a mighty 428ci V8 motor present. The performance motor reportedly sees a recent oil change to run smoothly and efficiently and sees features like the Cobra valve covers boosting its performance feel. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through an automatic transmission and a Hurst gear shifter for a better drive feel.
Named after Henry Ford's sprawling Dearborn estate, the Fairlane started life as Ford's full-size automobile in 1955. The Fairlane was well-received and available in several body styles, including two- and four-door sedans, hardtops, station wagons, convertibles, and even a coupe utility for the Australian market. Today, well-kept first-generation examples such as this 1955 Ford Fairland 2-Door Club Sedan are sought after by discerning collectors. This particular car reportedly received a repaint approximately 15 years ago. The current owner also discloses that it comes with a numbers-matching motor and transmission but lacks documentation to prove it. Never mind, the condition and sheer classic value of this car more than compensate. Let's see what it offers.

The original Mustang Boss 302 of the late 1960’s is an iconic muscle car in every respect. So, when Ford decided to resurrect the idea in 2012, the bar was already set high. Many feared the reincarnated Boss 302 would be nothing more than a marketing exercise that evoked memories of the original through visual upgrades and nothing more. However, the fears were put to rest when the car was unveiled. While visually, the 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 does differ from the GT500, there was so much more going on under the skin. The result was almost universally praised by the press, with an extra 32 horsepower from the engine, a completely revised approach to the car’s suspension, and improved brakes. If that wasn’t enough, the Boss 302 presented today has gone under some significant modifications by GALPIN Auto Sports. With a host of upgrades, and some eliminations, this Mustang is set as a proper track car with a gutted interior and a new 5.2L V8 engine that features other functional upgrades that could be the perfect track-weapon in your garage.

Built to turn heads as you drive by, this 50s icon can be your weekend cruiser that's best enjoyed with its top-down and picturesque back road.

There are few cars that can embed themselves into popular culture the way the achingly beautiful third-generation Chevrolet Impala has. The model featured many design flourishes that epitomized the ’50s and ‘60s, including the car’s long and flowing lines, low roof, lashing of chrome, wrap-around windshield, and distinctive c-pillar design. The car we offer for sale here takes the traditional Impala recipe and adds so much more. Under the hood, you’ll find a modern GM LS V8 engine, which just so happens to have a supercharger strapped to it for good measure.

The golden era of muscle cars is widely thought to have peaked around the late ’60s and early ’70s. It was the time before stricter emissions and economic regulations came into play that put an end to the ever-swelling engine capacities and power outputs that manufacturers used to lure customers into their showrooms. The 1969 Pontiac GTO Coupe defined this golden era. With its stunning and aggressive design and scarcely believable engine configurations under the hood, the GTO is a true muscle car in every sense of the word. Our featured vehicle celebrates this era of design and power. It comes with the iconic 400 ci engine that has been freshly rebuilt, along with a host of new parts and accessories, enabling you to taste the best of the original muscle car era.
